J-45 EC Studio and AJ-220SCE

[HSExplorer]

Are those two the same?

I checked the other online dealers that offers the J-45 EC Studio and other dealers that offers the AJ-220SCE.

The stock pictures for both the J-45 EC Studio and AJ-220SCE have the 'AJ' printed on the headstock.

I purchased the J-45 EC Studio and it does not have the 'AJ' writing on the headstock.

Both are using the Manufacturer Part Number EE2SVSNH3 on the online dealers' websites.

Image files are too big so I use IMGUR.

 

 

Did I received an brand new and authentic Epiphone? Thank you.

Nevermind... I got the answer. AJ-220SCE is the old name. The new name is J-45 EC Studio. And the 'AJ' inscription has been removed after renaming of the lineup.
